As we continue to work through the tremendous loss of our brother, colleague and wonderful friend, Steve Levine, PT, DPT, MSHA, FAPTA, we look forward to celebrating his life with family, friends and colleagues.

A Celebration of Steve Levine’s life will take place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on April 18, 2015 at 2PM at the Sunshine Cathedral MCC. The address and hotel recommendations are noted below.

A consummate professional, fierce competitor, trusted colleague, and loyal friend, Steve made a difference in so many ways in so many lives. As we honor him with tributes and reflections of his influence on the profession of physical therapy and visions for the professions future, we remember a man who took the time to make sure each individual was heard while making sure the collective voice and vision of what we are working hard to accomplish was not lost. Steve will be missed, not only by all of us, but by the many people he touched in some way shape or form over the span of his very full life. His work through Fearon & Levine was only a small part of what his impact has been and probably will continue to be in regards to “Shaping the Profession” of physical therapy as we move into the future. There is an empty place in our lives, and while we miss Steve’s physical presence terribly, his generous spirit, contributions and impact will continue to influence and inspire our paths forward.

If you wish to send a note of condolence, it can be mailed to Wendy Levine, Steve’s sister, at:

FearonLevine Consulting, P.O. Box 26743, Tamarac Florida, 33320

The APTA has created a wonderful tribute page for people to read and leave memories of Steve at
www.apta.org/RememberingSteveLevine. APTA will be having a special recognition of Steve and his impact on the profession and its Association at the NEXT conference, which will be held at National Harbor, Maryland, June 1- 6.
Details regarding this will be available from APTA.

Today, as you go through your work and life routines, take a moment to remember Steve with thanks for his contributions, his friendship and his commitment to excellence.
